Received State refund but still no bars on Federal and Topic 152.

I received state refund yesterday. But it threw me off because turbo tax says Accepted for state and Federal, And when I check WMR. Bars went away and Says Topic 152. Anyone ever have this happen or Know what's going on?

The tax topic 152 provides general information about the IRS processing of returns.  So, this is just general information that IRS provides as they process your tax return. You will not see your refund expected date, on the IRS website, until after IRS approves the refund.  If it is approved and there are no issues with your refund, IRS will update your status, and they will give you an estimated date. For most taxpayers, (9 out of 10), the refund process takes approximately 21 days.  So, keep watching WMR as updates are made frequently. For more about  tax topic 152, please visit this IRS page.

Topic 152 means that your tax returns may require further review and could take longer. 

Please see Topic 152 for more detailed information.
